Weaving a Magazine Coaster

Last week I was browsing the web for oragami patterns (I never actually end up where I am planning to go...) and came across a blog post on weaving coasters from magazine pages.

I decided to try it on one of the magazines I had lying around. It took me about 4 hours to get this far, but it felt nice - with unpacking boxes, yard work, building projects, etc, I haven't had a chance to really feel productive creatively.

Mine shows a lot more wear than the pictures on the other blog post, but I guess it is one of those practice makes perfect things...

Hi and you're welcome! I'm glad someone thinks it's going to be beautiful, becuase I almost wanted to give up on the idea altogether (and have come up with something else to do with my 3 foot stack of magazines) :P

If I had a million dollars, I'd buy all of these!
